i think you used a too soft brush while masking out the scissors. the edges are now too transparent. try pen tool. pen is your friend!

good attempt

ah.. matching the texture of the sculpture to the source.. good job there

i like it a lot

buda is realy looking for piece nice work

beautiful adaptayion

nice

Interesting idea good luck!

really nice balance... but since it's an alien maybe saturate the color a tad so it stands out from the back ground... your edges need a little bit more tender care (perhaps blur them delicately so they aren't so sharp and obviously masked out) the face needs the same care as well.. Don't ruin the image but play with the saturation and contrast and you will be surprised how much you could make this image POP good luck though.. great IDEA

very different

idea is good. cutout and fixing need more finishing

shadow is not good

Good Luck.

very nice
